Active Volcano

The findings revealed that the the Martian mantle's active processes may be fueling the growth of Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the solar system.

Volcanoes were erupting on the Moon as recently as 120 million years ago, evidence collected by a Chinese spacecraft suggests. Until the last few years, scientists had thought volcanic activity ended on the Moon around 2 billion years ago.

The evidence consists of three glass beads whose chemical composition suggests that lunar volcanoes were active until about 120 million years ago.

A volcanic eruption has begun again on a peninsula adjacent to Iceland's capital Reykjavik, the sixth time lava has emerged in the area in the space of a year. The Lava burst to the surface at 9:26 p.m. local time on Thursday.

A volcano in southwestern Iceland sent glowing hot lava shooting more than 50 metres into the air on Wednesday, its fifth eruption since December and the most powerful one since its volcanic system became active three years ago.

A volcano in southwestern Iceland erupted on Wednesday, live video from the area showed, making it the fifth outbreak since December.

Researchers described the planet as "Io on steroids". Io, Jupiter's third largest moon, is the most volcanic body in our solar system, with every inch of its surface covered in lava plains.

A volcano in eastern Indonesia spewed ash five kilometres (3.1 miles) into the sky on Wednesday in one of its largest eruptions this year.

At least 34 people were killed and 16 more were missing in western Indonesia after flash floods and cold lava flow from one of the archipelago's most active volcanos damaged homes, roads and mosques, officials said Sunday.

According to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Earth Observatory, gold dust is just one of many things that are being spewed out of Erebus.

On Deception Island in Antarctica, steam rises from the beaches, and glaciers dot the black slopes of what is actually an active volcano -- a rare clash of ice and fire that provides clues to scientists about what life could look like on Mars.

The study suggests that monitoring plant health through satellite images could be a game-changer in volcanic hazard mitigation.

At least 11 hikers have been found dead after a volcano erupted in western Indonesia, a local rescue official.

Icelandic authorities were on Tuesday preparing to build defence walls around a geothermal power plant in the southwestern part of the country that they hope will protect it from lava flows amid concerns of an imminent volcanic eruption.

Iceland, positioned on a tectonic plate boundary along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, is home to 33 active volcanoes.
